Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given two fractions 11\frac{}{11} and 7\frac{}{7}. . We are asked to perform the multiplication operation on these two fractions.
3. The result should be simplified to its lowest terms if possible.

STEP 2

The multiplication of two fractions is done by multiplying the numerators together to get the new numerator and the denominators together to get the new denominator.
abcd=acbd\frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \cdot c}{b \cdot d}

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the fractions to calculate the multiplication.
21127=22117\frac{2}{11} \cdot \frac{2}{7} = \frac{2 \cdot2}{11 \cdot7}

STEP 4

Calculate the multiplication in the numerator and the denominator.
22117=477\frac{2 \cdot2}{11 \cdot7} = \frac{4}{77}

STEP 5

The fraction 477\frac{4}{77} is already in its simplest form because the numerator and the denominator have no common factors other than1. Therefore, the result of the multiplication is 477\frac{4}{77}.
So, the answer is 477\frac{4}{77}.
